Catena AB Interim report January-September 2016

Build-out of Logistikposition Nässjö During the quarter, the walls were raised for Catena's new volume terminal, with nearly 10,000 square meters of capacity on the Gamlarp 4:1 property in Nässjö, and a new Catena profiled building in red, white and silver can now be discerned. This is a favourably located logistics facility near Jönköping Airport, directly adjacent to Highway 40, the main rail line through southern Sweden and the container terminal already in place in Nässjö. Although the container terminal in Jönköping is also within reach. A location that is growing all the more strategic as long-distance transports of goods and commodities increasingly transfer from road to rail. A trend driven both by aspects of cost and environmental factors. A volume terminal is a hybrid, combining what we call a terminal and a logistics warehouse. It has the large number of doors characteristic of a terminal, as well as the space necessary for receiving and shipping incoming goods on the same day. Our volume terminal also has the height characteristic of a logistics warehouse, which are needed to cost-­ efficiently store goods also for extended periods. Gamlarp 4:1 is, moreover, Catena's second volume terminal following the one we recently constructed in Katrineholm and that is now in operation.

Among others, the volume terminal concept suits Höglands Logistik AB, which, on 1 October, moved into the new strategically located logistics facility in Nässjö. From there, the company can offer customised third party logistics services to a number of businesses in the region, all of whom have different needs. Naturally, these include distribution. From Nässjö, Höglands Logistik covers all of Sweden, Scandinavia, Northern Europe and the Baltic States. Höglands Logistik leases about 6,700 square meters, representing about 70 percent of the lettable area of the new volume terminal. Given the interest that has been shown, we expect the remaining space to soon be leased. On the 63,000 square-metre site, which, incidentally, neighbours another of Catena's properties: Lagret 1, we have the possibility of constructing a further 25,000 square metres of attractive logistics premises. There are already plans to construct another volume terminal on the property. In connection with the current construction work, we have prepared for this with groundwork in the form of roads, connections, security installations and other infrastructure.

Catena AB Interim report January-September 2016

CEO’s review 3

Increased income and strong balance sheet Over the past three years, we have managed to establish Catena as the leading property company in logistics with a broad portfolio of strategically located terminals, logistics warehouses and distribution buildings. We have grown through both strategic acquisitions and new construction and currently have 1.5 million square meters of floor space. Several acquisitions were made to get closer to new customer groups rather than on the basis of interest in specific properties. We see clear signs that city logistics, that is, warehouse positions and distribution facilities directly adjacent to our metro­ politan regions, will become an increasingly important part of the logistics of the future. The situation is particularly interesting regarding food distribution, since complexity is increasing with high general requirements for the handling of food and, in addition, the need for up to four different climate zones. Currently, approximately one third of our clients are food and produce companies. The effect of the Tribona acquisition in early 2016 can be discerned most clearly in the 70-percent increase in rental income, which for the first nine months amounted to SEK 587 million, compared with SEK 345 million for the same period last year. The increase in operating surplus amounts to 62 percent and in profit from property management to 22 percent. Despite this, we have a lot of work left to do to bring operating and financial expenses down to our former and more normal surplus ratio level. Renegotiation of the loan portfolio takes time and occurs gradually as our loans mature. Since 72 percent of our borrowing is hedged with interest rate derivatives, which had a negative change in value as a result of low market rates, profit for the period is burdened in the negative amount of SEK 143 million, although this item does not affect cash flow. Following the close of the period, we have implemented a private placement for cash, which brought the company SEK 330 million and strengthened both liquidity and solvency, and of course, increased the number of shareholders. More share­ holders means increased liquidity in Catena's shares, generating value for our shareholders. The market outlook and demand remain favourable in the wake of increasing freight flows and our letting ratio improved slightly over the quarter, amounting to more than 92 percent. A lot of work remains before we have brought the entire property portfolio back up to the operating margin of around 76 percent that we had prior to our major acquisition of Tribona. With continued good footwork on energy enhancements and operational improvements, I am confident we will exceed today's 72 percent and return to the previous level.

Catena AB Interim report January-September 2016

Interim report January-September 2016 Income and profit Rental income

Earnings

Rental income rose by 70 percent to SEK 586.9 million (345.1), mainly due to the acquisition of Tribona and completed projects. Income from contracts with terms of more than three years accounted for approximately 62 percent of Catena’s contracted annual rent, which entails stable income with no appreciable variation between periods, except in connection with acquisitions and sales. The average remaining lease period is slightly more than four years.

Despite being burdened by substantial non-recurring amounts, profit from property management rose by 22 percent to SEK 234.7 million (192.1). The expenses of approximately SEK 20 million comprise a large number of individual items associated with the acquisition of Tribona, the largest of which is the reassessment of the year’s opening holding in Tribona, which, in connection with the preparation of the acquisition analysis for the now wholly owned holding, resulted in an expense of SEK 12 million being recognised under Participations in profit of associated companies. Profit for the period was SEK 172.6 million, which is SEK 253.6 million lower than in the year-earlier period, primarily due to negative changes in the value of derivatives due to longterm market rates having fallen, but also lower realised changes in value. A positive change in the value of investment properties was reported for the period, which was partially offset by a change in goodwill from the acquisition of Tribona. The unrealised changes in value are of an accounting nature and do not affect cash flow.

Regions SEK m Rental income

Property expenses Property expenses rose by 96 percent to SEK 157.0 million (80.2), mainly due to the property portfolio being considerably larger and a higher level of vacancies, resulting in a greater proportion of media costs burdening the landlord. There are seasonal variations in the operation and maintenance of properties. Winters with much cold and snow entail higher costs for heating and snow removal. A hot summer can mean increased costs for cooling. These variations, that have the greatest impact during the winter and summer months, are, to some extent, offset by a change in expenses billed to tenants.

Financial expenses Financial expenses amounted to SEK 183.2 million (69.9) and the increase is an effect of the acquisition of Tribona. As a consequence of the acquisition, average interest on borrowings, which have now increased overall, rose by approximately 1 percentage point, resulting in higher interest expenses. Financial expenses also include non-recurring items of approximately SEK 2 million, incurred as a consequence of the acquisition.

Cash flow for the period before changes in working capital improved by SEK 25.6 million to SEK 215.7 million (190.1). Cash flow was affected by both significant acquisitions and disposals. The cash outflow for the acquisition of Tribona amounts to SEK 559.9 million for the period. Part of the acquisition was financed through new share issues for a total SEK 855.9 million, which did not affect cash flow. The divestments that were implemented of the Högsbo 21:2 and Partille 11:24 properties in Gothenburg affected cash flow positively by SEK 437.2 million. At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 66.5 million (105.9).

The change in the financial position is pervaded by the gradual acquisition of Tribona. At the start of the year, the holding was recognised according to the equity method, which meant that Catena’s share of Tribona’s combined assets were recognised on a single line in the balance sheet. The acquisition of Tribona constitutes a business combination and is recognised in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations. This means, in addition to all of the assets and liabilities of the acquired Tribona being recognised distributed across all of the balance sheet items, the deferred tax should be taken into account on all temporary differences. This increase in deferred tax liabilities results in goodwill of SEK 696.6 million, which were reduced by SEK 38.9 million in the second quarter beyond what has been realised through the sale of Partille 11:24. The effects of a business combination entail an increase in the balance sheet, thereby affecting the related key figures.

Liabilities to credit institutions

Derivative instruments

Liabilities to credit institutions amounted to SEK 6,543.0 million (3,084.7) and the loan framework amounted to SEK 7,033.0 million on 30 September 2016.

Financial instruments consist of derivative instruments in Category 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The derivatives are marked to market, meaning that the carrying amount agrees with the fair value. The change is recognised in the income statement. The carrying amount was a negative SEK 568.9 million (143.8). The change in the value of the derivatives does not affect cash flow and, on reaching maturity, the value of derivatives is always zero. The nominal value of the derivatives is equivalent to 72 percent of consolidated liabilities to credit institutions.

Changes in property portfolio The acquisition of Tribona was effectuated through a public takeover bid offer that was completed on 5 February. Tribona was consolidated on 26 January (the acquisition date). Compulsory redemption of the remaining approximately 5.5 percent of the shares outstanding has been required. During the period, ongoing investments in existing properties amounted to SEK 362.7 million (75.1), of which part pertains to investments in the Sothönan 3 property in Katrineholm, where a new terminal is now complete for industrial volume freight.

The largest investment currently in progress, is our e-commerce cluster E-City Engelholm. Construction of stages one and two are in full swing, together comprising 58,000 square metres of logistics warehouses and office space for various e-commerce companies. The second-largest investment is the new volume terminal in Nässjö that we present on page 2. Sales and acquisitions of companies and properties over the period, until the closing date, are listed in the table below.

Property valuation The unrealised changes in the value of Catena’s properties during the period amounted to SEK 128.4 million (129.8), as an effect, among other things, of well-­implemented projects, economies of scale and good property management. Each quarter, Catena implements internal valuations of all its investment properties and this is used to determine the fair values recognised in the balance sheet, In the third quarter, most of the portfolio was assessed externally by two valuation companies. All of the Group’s investment properties are assessed as being at level 3 in the valuation hierarchy. A detailed description of the valuation principles is available in Catena’s annual report for 2015. A certain discrepancy is permitted between the internal valuation and the fair value before the fair value is adjusted. The deviation must lie within a range governed by the permitted deviation, ±0.25%, from the set yield requirement. Only when the deviation exceeds or falls short of this range is the real value adjusted. This deviation is accepted since there is always some uncertainty in estimated figures.

Other Market outlook Over time, the market for logistics properties is driven by increased goods flows and growing retail trade, particularly e-commerce. Consequently, demand for Catena’s well-situated and, for their purpose well-suited and environmentally efficient, logistics spaces is expected to remain good in 2016. The availability of modern, strategically located logistics premises, preferably adjacent to container terminals, is limited. This means that we expect a substantial increase in the letting ratio of our properties. The availability of developable land with suitable planning permission is also limited within certain geographical areas, providing opportunities for increased rent levels. Accordingly, this provides good opportunities for realising new production at our existing development sites. Concluded agreement negotiations also indicate stable rent levels in our existing portfolio. In addition, as a result of increased space efficiency, we expect increased rental income per square metre for our newer holdings of larger buildings and newly developed properties. Combined with favourable access to capital at low interest rates, this means that the transaction market for efficient, energysmart and suitably located logistics properties remains good. Through acquisitions and property development, we perceive good opportunities to expand our operations over the coming years.

Catena’s sustainability activities Sustainability is one of Catena’s four prioritised strategic areas. Our work focuses on participating in social progress by establishing the conditions for more sustainable logistics, reducing environmental impact and being an attractive employer. Catena has daily contacts with numerous stakeholders and contact fora include Catena’s annual Logistics Trends conference. Read more about Catena’s sustainability work on pages 27-37 of the 2015 Annual Report.

Catena AB Interim report January-September 2016

Other significant events during the period In connection with the public takeover bid for Tribona’s shares, Catena’s Annual General Meeting decided to issue new shares and on 29 January 2016, 7,246,971 shares and votes were registered. Following the extended acceptance period, Catena has acquired an additional 2.9 percent of the shares and a further 346,614 shares have been issued. Compulsory redemption of the remaining shares in Tribona is in progress and an arbitration board has been formed. The Board of Tribona decided to delist Tribona’s shares from the Nasdaq Stockholm exchange. The final day for trading in Tribona’s shares was 22 February 2016. In connection with the new regional division following the acquisition of Tribona, Catena has expanded its company management to include Christian Berglund as regional manager for Malmö and Jönköping. Catena is building two stages out of three at the e-commerce cluster E-CITY Engelholm of more than 57,000 square metres. Among other developments, it has, through its subsidiary Queenswall AB, signed a 15-year lease on 43,500 square metres with Boozt Fashion AB, which is due to move in during the first quarter of 2017. In Nässjö, an approximately 9,200 square-metre logistics warehouse is to be constructed, starting in the spring of 2016 and Catena has signed a lease for approximately 6,700 square metres of this space with Höglands Logistik AB in Nässjö. The lease will come into effect on 1 October 2016 and will be valid for ten years. Catena has signed agreements for the sale of the Partille 11:24 property in Gothenburg for a property value of SEK 186 million. The buyer gained access to the property on 15 April. In May, Nya SFF issued covered bonds for SEK 652 million. Catena is participating with the logistics property Nattskiftet 11 in Stockholm and is borrowing an amount of SEK 211 million through a two-year bond with a floating rate of 3 months Stibor plus 0.95 percent. Catena has decided to invest approximately SEK 50 million in the Tågarp 16:17 property outside Malmö. The investment will permit a new ten-year lease with Espresso House and a new three-year lease with MatHem. The total annual rent will amount to approximately SEK 12 million and the remodelling will be completed in early 2017.

Mosås 4:66, Örebro

Together with the City of Malmö, Catena has signed a contract for an exchange of properties. Catena divests the Terminalen 3 and 4 properties in Malmö, of more than 34,000 square meters, for a property value of SEK 140 million. At the same time, Catena acquires three properties, Sockret 1, 2 and 6, from the City of Malmö and the land at Sockret 4, which is currently on leasehold, for a property value of SEK 50 million. Catena is expected to gain access in November 2016. A shareholders’ agreement has been signed with the Municipality of Örebro’s wholly owned companies, Örebroporten AB and Lokalhusman i Örebro 2 AB, regarding a joint venture company named Torsjö Logistik AB. The Company will own approximately 720,000 square metres of first-class logistics land and the parties will join efforts to work for a new development plan for the area. The land is located near the properties already owned by Catena in Örebro. When the area is fully developed, the investment in Torsjö Logistik AB will amount to about SEK 2 billion. In the third quarter, Catena signed an agreement to acquire the Burlöv Tågarp 16:22 property in the outskirts of Malmö. The transaction is being conducted as a corporate acquisition at an underlying property value of SEK 46 million. The property, which covers approximately 4,000 square meters, has an annual rental income of about SEK 5 million, and was transferred to Catena's control as per 1 November 2016. An agreement has also been signed for the acquisition of the Östersund Skogskojan 1 property. This transaction is also a corporate acquisition and the underlying property value is SEK 56 million. The property has annual rental income of around SEK 4 million and covers approximately 3,500 square metres, which have been adapted for both letter and parcel handling. The transfer date is 7 November 2016. Catena has recruited Benny Thögersen as its new Deputy CEO. Thögersen joins the company from Knapp AB and will assume his post on 1 December 2016. Mikael Halling, who has held the post of Deputy CEO of Catena since 2013, has chosen to step down but will continue as a business developer and senior advisor for Catena.

Catena AB Interim report January-September 2016

Significant events after the end of the period Following the end of the period, Catena has conducted a private placement for cash of 2.5 million shares at an issue price of SEK 132 per share. The issue has entailed proceeds of approximately SEK 330 million for the company before deduction of transaction costs and resulted in existing shareholders having their shareholdings diluted by about 7 percent. The Offer deviated from the preferential rights of existing shareholders with the purpose of broadening the institutional shareholder base and facilitating growth through investment in value-generating projects and acquisitions of strategically located and sustainable logistics properties. Catena has appointed a new Nomination Committee for the 2017 Annual General Meeting, consisting of representatives of the four largest shareholders: Henry Klotz for Endicott Sweden AB, Anders Nelson for Backahill Kil AB, Eva Gottfrids­dotterNilsson for Länsförsäkringar Fondförvaltning AB and Klas Andersson for SFU Sverige AB.

Accounting and valuation principles Catena AB draws up its consolidated accounts in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and also with interpretive statements from the International Financial Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as approved by the European Commission for application in the EU. The Parent Company applies the same accounting principles as the Group, but taking into consideration the recommendations from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board in RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities. This interim report was drawn up in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, for the Group and according to the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company. The accounting principles are unchanged compared with the annual report for the preceding year. None of the other IFRS or IFRIC interpretations that apply effective from 1 January 2016 are deemed to have any significant impact on the Group.

Jordbromalm 4:41, Haninge

Risks and uncertainty factors In order to draw up the accounts according to generally accepted accounting principles, the company management must make assessments and assumptions that affect the asset and liability items and the income and expense items disclosed in the annual accounts, and also other information provided. Actual outcomes may diverge from these assessments. Catena’s financial risks are described in Note 19 on pages 87-88 of the 2015 Annual Report. No essential changes have occurred since its publication. The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer certify that this report gives a true and fair view of the financial position and results and describes significant risks and uncertainties that the Group and the companies included in the Group face.
